Psér, like its ancestor [[Paleogadaic]], is [[w:Stress (linguistics)|prototonic]], meaning that stress is placed on the first syllable of a word. This means that some [[Moshurian]] loanwords, a language where stress is placed on the penultimate syllable, change significantly in Psér due to the rare prototonic rule, e.g. Moshurian ''chirit'' becomes Psér ''shtiyr''. | |||

'''Miskŭ''' is the dialect mainly spoken in Briŭyeg. It's name comes from the Psér name for the Mezcof Basin, and it has had some influence on [[Mezco]]. | '''Miskŭ''' is the dialect mainly spoken in Briŭyeg.

'''Eastern Hyrîaow''' is the only dialect that is no longer spoken by any Psér speaker(L2 or native), and is named after the Hyrîaow mountain range. The notable differences between standard Psér is that /e/ was instead pronounced /æ/, and ŭ tended to be pronounced /œ/. These differences eventually mixed with [[Mezecki]], eventually forming a creole in the Mezcof, which later became known as [[Mezco]]. | '''Eastern Hyrîaow''' is the only dialect that is no longer spoken by any Psér speaker(L2 or native), and is named after the Hyrîaow mountain range.
